Sidewalk Film Festival 2013 winners: 'See You Next Tuesday' for feature, 'Hit & Stay' for documentary

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- “See You Next Tuesday,” a dark and funny film about a mentally unstable woman’s pregnancy, and “Hit & Stay,” a documentary about a group of Vietnam War protesters who helped end the military draft, have won the top jury prizes at the 2013 Sidewalk Film Festival.

“See You Next Tuesday” won for best feature-length narrative film, an award that has been newly renamed the Jambor-Franklin Founder’s Award for Best Narrative Feature, after Sidewalk founders Erik Jambor and Wayne and Kelli Franklin.

“Hit & Stay” won for best feature-length documentary.

Among the Audience Choice Award winners were "Short Term 12" for best feature and "Good Ol' Freda" for best documentary.

"Eye on the Sixties," a documentary about Life magazine photographer and former Birmingham resident Rowland Scherman, won an Audience Choice Award for best Alabama film.

Jambor, who helped start the festival in 1999 and was its director for the first eight years, presented some of the awards at Sunday night’s closing ceremony at the Alabama Theatre. Jambor is currently executive director of the Indie Memphis film festival.
